“It’s purely about exploring data. We’re not seeking conclusions or outcomes,” Breslow said. “I think my superpower is that I’ve never done health before.” In one of the most complex industries in the world the uncomfortable truth is that data is always shifting so it's never purely about exploring the data - it's always about people.

I have seen many companies struggle to make their strategy work in practice and fail to improve their performance. There is a tendency to be overly confident in the plan and then not be flexible enough when the situation changes, and it always does!
Cutting-edge technology uses MRI to diagnose patients with heart failure in record time
Researchers at the University of East Anglia have developed cutting-edge technology to diagnose patients with heart failure in record time. The state-of-the-art technology uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to create detailed 4D flow images of the heart. But unlike a standard MRI scan, which can take up to 20 minutes or more, the new 4D heart MRI scan takes just eight minutes.
